Love is the Way

 One of the teachers of the law came and heard them debating. Noticing that Jesus had given them a good answer, he asked him, “Of all the commandments, which is the most important?”

 “The most important one,” answered Jesus, “is this: ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one.  Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no commandment greater than these.” Mark 12:28-31

Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another, for whoever loves others has fulfilled the law. Romans 13:8

Jesus told us that if we love God with all we are and if we love others as ourselves, we fulfill God’s commandments. God has placed His love in the hearts of those who know Him. His love is our motivation and our encouragement, and we love Him because He first loved us.

The Ten Commandments are fulfilled in a life that learns to love with God’s love. The commandments “do not steal” and “do not commit adultery”, for example, are obeyed by the person who walks in love.

We can grow in our love towards God and others. The Lord wants to enable us to shine His love all around.

We will stumble on this road towards love’s way, but Jesus can help us to grow in our devotion towards Him and in our kindness towards others. When we fall we can bounce back like falling onto a trampoline.

Love is the way.

God's Heart for us in 2026

I believe that 2026 is to be a year of prayer for the believer. We are to pray for our raging nation. We are to lift up our churches with hearts filled with faith and love. We are to pray for unity in the body of Christ and for healing to touch the nations. We are to ask the Lord draw unbelievers to Himself and for the Lord to use us as His ambassadors. We are to lift up our friends and families. We are to pray for the nations and for those that are persecuted for their faith.

As we seek first the Lord in this way, He will add His blessings to us. He will honor us and He will fill us with His presence. If we will be faithful to Him in the secret place, He will openly reward us for His glory.

The Sowing of the Seed

The sowing of the seed begins the story

It lands on soft soil

Everything that is needed for growth abides within it

A blueprint for a formidable plant

 

The tiny bud reaches for the sky

It greets the sun

Its roots grow deeper than it is tall

Growing steady but still swaying gently in the wind

Like the rhythmic waving of a conductor’s baton

 

God’s word is a seed

Let the soil of our hearts be ever ready for it

A heart that understands

Not distracted, Un-polluted

Through God’s precious promises

Eternally powerful seeds

Causing us to

Partake of the divine nature 

In Christ
